Where they pull apart

Clay

Stands out: 150+ provider waterfall plus Claygent on every row, with MCP and API.

Watch out: Not a sender. Paid plans start at $185/mo on Launch, CRM sync needs Growth from $495/mo, and credit burn adds up.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need Clay to send the email
  • Buyers who want a cheap single-finder

Reoon

Stands out: Pay-per-credit bulk verify with a free monthly allowance and an API.

Watch out: It only cleans lists, so you still need a finder to build them.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need finder plus verifier in one login
  • Buyers who want MCP
